Congrats on your son's grades, SAT and D3 interest

1) If you commit D3, it would be verbal. They would most likely want your son to apply ED in exchange for their commitment to a roster spot. If your son needs help getting into the school then I would ask help from the coach in exchange for son's commitment.

2) I'll defer to others on showcase suggestions.

3) Once accepted to the D1 school, call the coach let him know of your interest to try to walk-on. Some D1 schools offer it and others only go through the motions Essentially, you have to go through the whole recruiting process again to sell the coach on his talents. There is plenty to search on HSBBWeb about walk-ons.

My two cents.....My advice would be to listen to those D3 school offers that want your son. There is a reason they are interested. Research their academics, and see if it is a fit.
